I am not really sure what it is?....other than two horses

Its roughly 1 3/4" wide has a flat bad and clasp on the backside. It appears to be poured but silver.
I can't make out the makers mark or artists signature. Wondering if its some sort of child's belt buckle but looks
to small in width and very bulky. It is so very cool but has me stumped....Any ideas?

I can't decide if it's ugly or extrememly cool looking.

I like it a lot either way!

Could it be saddle related?

Looks like a neckerchief slide...... not sure of the size, but if the retainer portion is small enough, could be for a bolo tie....Cheers, RickO

You'll have to let us know what you find out - especially if it is silver.

Don't worry.....they are very small, I would imagine their bite is not much

I seriously doubt it is for a kerchief (like the Scouts use) because the loop would be at the top of the horses head and not at the side nor would there be a post.
The design looks to be Eastern and not Western.
In addition, the three top figures look like numbers and not letters. They are 4, 8 & 5 in Tibetan figures.
So I think Bronco is close to it. The item is for a bridle more likely because of it's size.
That's my take on it anyway.

Cool, thanks.

If it was a neckerchief slide the horse's heads would be facing sideways. I think it is something else.

Here are some more images of the makers mark,

Not sure if its right side up or upside down?

Looks like it says "STERLING" to me.
